Chapter 629: Flames Of War Spreading Like Wildfire

As far as he could tell, if Peerless City had picked up any equipment, they didn’t seem to mind returning it to Lu Li.

This kind of level 50 Wild Boss would probably drop level 50 equipment, but Lu Li couldn’t use level 50 equipment for quite some time still anyway. By the time everyone was level 50, why would the guild leader of this major guild care about this piece of equipment?

“What did it drop?” Square Root 3 asked on their internal guild channel.

“Looks like it dropped a big shield and a Magic Staff,” Azure Sea Breeze responded. He had been fighting the boss, and it seemed like he had done quite well.

“Who picked it up? Was it someone from a major guild?”

If it was someone from a big guild, then Square Root 3 would definitely ask for it.

With so many people watching, there was no way a guild president would be able to sneak one away.

“Huh?” Azure Sea Breeze didn’t understand, but after Square Root 3’s explanation he went around and talked to the people around him. He then cried out with a laugh, “The big shield was taken by the Gangnam Royals. They killed him, but it didn’t drop. It’s not clear who took the Magic Staff; they didn’t have a guild logo on them.”

Did they get away with it?

Lu Li and Square Root 3 glanced at each other and saw the joy in each other’s eyes.

Heart of War had probably just received the news that his guild had picked up the item because he looked like he was about to cry. He wished that his guild hadn’t gotten it in the first place.

Unfortunately, they were the guild who had sent the most players, so they were most likely to get it.

In fact, there were two items picked up by their guild – a Dark Gold Shield and a Rare Material.

No one noticed the rare material, but the Dark Gold shield was so eyecatching that it immediately become the focus of everyone’s attention. Even if you wanted to steal it, there were too many players watching.

Heart of War took his image very seriously and couldn’t afford to not give the item up.

“Oh, thank you President Heart of War,” Square Root 3 said as he shook hands gratefully while the other party’s eyes narrowed.

Far Seer Mok’Thardin was one of Stranglethorn Vale’s strongest Bosses, so it definitely wouldn’t have dropped a piece of rubbish, but they didn’t know it would drop such an exquisite piece of equipment.

A strong shield made a more powerful Main Tank, and a more powerful Main Tank meant they could kill stronger Bosses. This item was of extraordinary significance.

Heart of War had a dark expression, but he forced a smile and taunted Ruling Sword.

“We will send the item to President Square Root 3. We, the Gangnam Royals, can do without these one or two items.”

Square Root 3 didn’t mind the boasting of the Gangnam Royals at all.

Hornet’s Nest couldn’t stand this kind of posh posturing and false friendship.

“Alright, let’s ask how things are inside and see if we can kill Aggro’Gosh as well.”

“It’s a bit harder. Aggro’Gosh has a lot of HP, far more than Far Seer Mok’Thardin,” Unforgettable Maple said as he shook his head.

“What about the two Ogre Bosses?” Hornet’s Nest frowned.

“One of them, Roloch, is currently fighting Aggro’Gosh. Mai’Zoth has lost his opponent and now he is going around slaughtering the players. It’s all a mess; I’d advise to quit while you’re ahead,” Unforgetful Maple answered with a bitter smile.

Needless to say, they all knew that Mai’Zoth wouldn’t only kill the Horde players. All players were simply pests to it.

Heart of War was still the commander and exercised his authority.

“How much HP do they have? We can focus all of our attacks on Lord Aggro’Gosh.”

The order was soon released for the Alliance players to give up their fight against the Horde players and to attack Lord Aggro’Gosh.

Square Root 3 then issued another order.

Substitute!

This didn’t mean that they weren’t going to send anyone, but that they were sending a different group of players.

Originally, the players sent in were the elites, or those who were stronger than average. However, many of these players had died and didn’t want to go back in. As such, they sent their cannon fodder.

Ruling Sword’s cannon fodder was a little pitiful – they were only a little over level 30 and had joined the guild not too long ago.

They had never fought ina war before and they were keen to join in. Now that they had been ordered to charge at this Boss, Ruling Sword looked like they were the most eager to fight. However, these players were often killed in one shot.

Needless to say, the other guilds sent out their troops in a similar fashion, but it wasn’t clear as to whether Heart of War was going to follow.

As they struggled on, they slowly realized that this Boss would be impossible to defeat. For whatever reason, the three Bosses had now started working together to kill the players.

The flocks of players being killed were replaced by new arrivals who were in turn being killed.

As the enthusiasm wore off, someone proposed a retreat.

Heart of War wanted to keep going, but no one would support him, so he could only helplessly order a retreat.

“Get out of there and leave the Boss to the Horde players.”

It had grown dark and both Alliance and Horde players began to retreat. After fighting the Horde for a while, Mai’Zoth and Roloch stomped out of the Gorgrom camp with the remaining Ogres.

When the Ogres arrived, there were nearly ten thousand of them, but now, only one or two thousand were leaving.

The two Bosses didn’t have much HP left either, so the players didn’t want to miss this opportunity. Thousands of players from both the Horde and Alliance surrounded them.

The players’ levels were about 35 on average, and they were fighting a level 50 Boss. The two sides worked with each other to confront the Boss head on.

It was at this time that they discovered the level gap was a serious disadvantage.

There were certain levels in Dawn where your strength increased dramatically. These were level 10, 30, 50 etc.

Countless players had been killed along the road.

The two Bosses’ HP bars were slowly regenerating the whole time, so when they got back to the Mosh’Ogg Ogre Hill, they were almost at full HP.

Along the way, players also walked by the dead bodies and picked up their dropped items. Following Lu Li’s advice, no one from Ruling Sword died because of this. No one knew the strength of level 50 Bosses better than Lu Li.

Lord Aggro’Gosh was a warrior and was always available to fight if they wanted to.

Ruling Sword didn’t need to do anything; they weren’t in the spotlight this time. The thousands of Ogres led by Lu Li had destroyed the Horde resistance.

As for the Alliance, Lu Li’s legend grew even more fabled.

The stories about him became more and more outrageous. Some said that Lu Li had killed three Bosses and that the two remaining ones had come to take revenge. Others said that Lu Li had taken a token that forced the Ogres to obey him…

The Dark Gold Shield had been mailed over by Heart of War. Because it wasn’t known who had taken the Magic Staff, that item was lost.

The consequences of the Stranglethorn Vale war were far reaching. This place gradually became a location where the factions would often clash. Small camps were often massacred as there was no long a Boss to keep order.

In retaliation, the Horde attacked the camp in Gray Valley more frequently.

Gray Valley, Stranglethorn Valley and Double Valley were now engaged in a constant battle. The Horde and Alliance were now hostile factions that kept relentlessly killing each other.
